[@adult\_animation](https://lemmy.world/c/adult_animation) I'm new here and I just wanted to mention one of my favourite animated adult series, The Midnight Gospel I consider this series to be exclusive to adult audience due to it's level of complexity. Of course, if you are not an expert in philosophy and budism, the experience could be a bit confusing, but, is it a privilege as an adult…
unlabelledView post →The Midnight Gospel somehow premiered 4 whole years ago today! Our endearing li'l anomaly of a show will always hold a special place in my heart. It feels like a small miracle that it managed to get made, and another that I got to have it as my first animation job. ☕🧙♂️🎤 #DailyDoodle #MidnightGospel

unlabelledView post →When press releases started trickling out announcing The Midnight Gospel, most of them were worded as though Netflix had JUST greenlit the series. But, only a few weeks prior, I had wrapped up my time on the project rough animating the literal final scenes of the last episode.
unlabelledView post →I’ve grumbled many times before, but I’ll always be bitter The Midnight Gospel got dumped all at once in the binge format. The show would’ve burned so much brighter if our audience had time between episodes to digest, rewatch and talk about them. Instead it faded from the zeitgeist in a mere blink.
unlabelledView post →I recently drew a different character, this time being Clancy Gilroy from an underrated animated Netflix show, The Midnight Gospel! I think that Clancy was a good character who's also a fictional podcaster with an adorable design. #clancygilroy #thelidnightgospel #themidnightgospelfanart

unlabelledView post →dunno if this is just a hot take or not but I don’t mind The Midnight Gospel just only having one season Yes it is unfortunate that it got cancelled and I would love to see what more the show could do I thought it’s ending felt, quite nice, yes it ended on a bittersweet ending but I didn’t mind it

unlabelledView post →One thing I hope for this series is that it doesn't get cancelled just like what happened to The Midnight Gospel and Close Enough. It's also worse that Close Enough got purged. But maybe Netflix is learning their lesson to make sure they keep those shows going for it to let them have a proper...
unlabelledView post →So of course I had to look him up & "Charles Duncan Trussell is an American actor/stand-up comic, known for his podcast The Duncan Trussell Family Hour. He appeared on & co-created the 2020 Netflix series The Midnight Gospel, & starred w/ Joe Rogan in the SYFY series Joe Rogan Questions Everything"
unlabelledView post →I would say, there has been some progress, series that come to mind like Primal, Lastman, The Midnight Gospel, Batman: Caped Crusader and even Invincible has shown that adult animation can be made outside of that mold, but still, how many Big Mouth-like series have popped out of nowhere already? 🤢
unlabelledView post →To this day I have not seen any show strike quite the same tone as Xavier: Renegade Angel (though The Midnight Gospel came close), but I'd be lying if I said I hated all the modern stuff (shit like Oh My God Yes cracks me the fuck up in different but equally enjoyable ways)

unlabelledView post →This is from The Midnight Gospel, an amazing 8 part show on Netflix, the Etsy store that made this pin is shut down. I thought I'd lost it a year or two ago, and unexpectedly found it today, I'm so happy! You should watch it.

unlabelledView post →If you want some examples of what puppet rigs are capable of Fosters Home, El Tigre, Motor City, Turbo Fast, and The Cuphead Show are probably you’re looking for. From a stylistic perspective 6Teen, Tuca and Bertie, The Midnight Gospel, and Little Bill are worth checking out.
unlabelledView post →Very cool. Have you ever seen The Midnight Gospel? A lot of afterlife and metaphysical commentary in that series.

unlabelledView post →The Midnight Gospel, I really wish they made more than one season
unlabelledView post →The Midnight Gospel is a very weird yet 'real' show. It's an adaptation of comedian Duncan Trussell's very real podcast, taking episodes and animating them over. The clip shown is an interview with his mom, now passed and then dying of cancer, that never fails to make me cry every time I hear it...
unlabelledView post →Amazing show. Have you seen The Midnight Gospel?
unlabelledView post →Oh [I see it now](https://feddit.org/u/[email protected]?page=1&sort=New&view=Posts). If you feel chatty, where do you sample these from, or how, what's the process? And if you haven't watched [The Midnight Gospel](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Midnight_Gospel), I highly recommend it.
unlabelledView post →Though I REALLY REALLY REEEEALLLLLYYYY recommend The Good Place first to watch. It's on Netflix. It's a very good feel good show and it's super therapeutic. If you can handle a lot of existentialism I recommend "The Midnight Gospel" but that's one of those that you should be in a better

unlabelledView post →Lol I know it's just a few terrible people that get elevated to the top but ugh. I don't really listen to podcasts. There's one that got converted to a series called The Midnight Gospel on Netflix which I love. Also Welcome to Night Vale.
unlabelledView post →I also like Clancy Gilroy from The Midnight Gospel. I wish this show got a second season but seems like Netflix or tv networks tends to get rid of good shows by cancelling them and later deleting them out of existence without a DVD. hero.fandom.com/wiki/Clancy_...

unlabelledView post →I really loved the Inside Out. I should rewatch it and run a binge watch till Elemental! THANKS for the push!! Somehow the non-pixar series "The Midnight Gospel" comes to my mind too. I should also watch it.

unlabelledView post →The Midnight Gospel as a whole did the same. Watching the whole show at once and you are getting into some wild deep stuff but damn do you not expect what is coming. I kinda love these things that lull you into being devastated. Hope to one day make something like that.
unlabelledView post →The Midnight Gospel is a good show.

unlabelledView post →images.app.goo.gl/oscSKXkBMHT2.... Watch the show on Netflix. The Midnight Gospel. Get high and really listen.
unlabelledView post →I remember watching The Midnight Gospel, at the end of the first episode I thought it was a smart series. After like the fourth episode I changed my opinion and thought it was just a stoner's ramblings, and by the end of the series I was convinced it was just written by a moron.
unlabelledView post →I still find it weird that they were people making fun of the Midnight Gospel show especially with the odd commentary like it's not that deep when the guy is talking to his mom who is dying of cancer and how to grief.

unlabelledView post →I highly recommend watching Joe Pera Talks With You. finished season one and it has become my favorite comfort TV show. has a bit of The Midnight Gospel sprinkled into it. Connor O'Malley somehow finds his way into every single episode . Somehow
unlabelledView post →This is what I'm afraid what will happen: They will see a good insider show, give it an eight episode order, it barely gets the ratings, And then they cancel it after one season. They've done this for a lot of their good shows: Tuca & Bertie, Inside Job, The Midnight Gospel, Captain Laserhawk

unlabelledView post →(1) The Midnight Gospel: My partner finally got me to sit down and finish this, and wow am I glad I did. It's cool how this show not only engages with deep, heavy topics, but criticizes people who engage with mindfulness in a shallow way that allows them to avoid it. Absolutely incredible. 10/10
